Les Lodges Sainte-Victoire Hotel & Spa

“Quaint, five star experience”

Beautiful, restful and luxurious. All the staff were wonderful but Angelo, Benjamin and Laurent are outstanding. Their attention to friendly service made us feel like family. Also, a 10 minute shuttle to downtown Aix en Provence. We will be back.

“Overall a nice stay”

Lovely property and great food at the restaurant onsite. Staff is friendly and attentive to your needs. Main downside is that you can hear everything in the room. Very thin walls so you can hear people walking to their room and things like the blow dryer next door and even light conversation. We didn’t get great sleep due to this. Also, it might matter to some, but we didn't have a shower or AC. We had a tub with a hand shower. Overall our stay was nice but the hotel didn’t feel 5 Star. Lots of dust in the restaurant terrace and our silverware and glasses were dirty. The staff quickly tended to situation but those little things you don’t expect from a 5 star resort.

As we pulled into the driveway we had sudden reservations about what we were in for as a large tour bus emptied a crowd of people into the reception just ahead of us. Luckily however, it must have been a travel agents' tour or something as they disappeared quickly and, they could not possibly all have been staying as the breakfast room and dining areas always had a nice relaxed vibe and never seemed terribly populated. And I don't even think such a crowd could be accommodated in this boutique hotel. After that initial fear was laid to rest, our time at Les Lodges Saint Victoire was nothing short of perfect. The rooms are beautiful - a good size (ours was just a standard), quiet, thick curtains, comfortable beds, with a gorgeous outlook - certainly ours did and from what I could see, all of the others did too - looking out over the terrace, pool, the picturesque countryside and if we craned our neck a little we could see the impressive Mt Saint Victoire. The Spa looked good - I only used the sauna but there seemed to be very happy relaxed robe-clad clientele wandering back to their rooms in a blissful state. The breakfast had a good selection of fresh fruits, pastries and eggs etc. There are 2 restaurants. We did not try St Esteve but had a very enjoyable dinner at The Atelier. The staff are very friendly and accomodating. The terrace is a lovely spot for a pre-dinner drink. We did go back to The Atelier for lunch the next day but were surprised that the lunch and dinner menu are exactly the same and because it's quite a small menu, we were a little disappointed that there wasn't something a little more lunchy offered. Situated about 10 minutes drive from Aix though, there are plenty of food options there and there is a hotel shuttle too to zip in and out. The stand out for us were the concierges, Laurent and Ben, who went above and beyond to make our stay memorable with restaurant bookings, walking & cycling trails and even recommendations for our next destination. They had their fingers on the pulse and always seemed attentive and ready with suggestions for us. Thank you again!
